In a selfless act of heroism, Newark Mayor Cory Booker saved a neighbor’s life by bolting through raging flames and falling embers to pulling her from a smoke-choked bedroom Thursday night.

Mayor Cory Booker saved a woman from this burning building

Can you imagine NJ Gov. Fatso, AKA, Chris Christie doing this? Especially, without a helicopter and a baker’s dozen from Krispy Kreme?

Booker, widely seen as a rising star in the Democratic party, appeared today with second-degree burns on his right hand, confessed Friday that he thought death was imminent in the seconds before he rescued Zina Hodge from the inferno.

Mayor Cory Booker is being lauded for his heroics today

“At that point, I didn’t feel bravery — I felt terror,” the 42-year-old mayor said at a news conference. “It was a moment I felt very religious, put it that way.

“I had a conversation with God I never had before,” Booker continued. “I feel very blessed.”

Christie would never risk his fat ass to save a resident of New Jersey from a burning building. He’s too busy auditioning for vice president. Christie is determined to be Mitt Romney’s number two. If he’s selected he will be Mitt’s number 350.🙂

Cory Booker risked life and limb to rescue the woman from the burning building and sustained 2nd degree burns in the process. He simply reacted like a human being trying to help another human being in harms way.

If Chris Christie found himself in similar settings, he would’ve said something pithy like, “this is what happens when you ignore warnings to have a working smoke detector in your home.”
